Image Comics has released a preview of Trees: Three Fates #1, the first issue of the next volume of the creator-owned series by Warren Ellis and Jason Howard, ahead of its release in September Final order cutoff for the comic is Monday, and Image is hoping it will sell out so they can send out[...]

At the MIT Media Lab yesterday, Warren Ellis was been interviewed by Kevin Slavin about his life, work and thoughts about stuff as part of a series entitled Mythophysics Of The New Normal. Along the way, he also made mention that he and Jason Howard are taking a break between the second and third volume of his Image[...]

By Josh Hechinger Welcome to From Strip to Script, where I take a page of finished comic art and try to derive a script from it, to see what I can learn from the exercise. I missed the first 'season' of Warren Ellis and Jason Howard's Trees when it was coming out, but ended up catching up[...]

Though from a time when the comic books were way down the pecking order from the strips… Valhalla Mad is basically what if The Truth + The Divine had been written by Jamie Boardman. Trees #9 brings Googlebuses to the streets of London Robotransport that has its limitations, but you'll never have to wait for a driver to[...]

I do rather like the science-fiction global petri dish story of Trees by Warren Ellis and Jason Howard But not long ago, the big man had doubts about its success it seemed. Well, things are ticking along. Warren writes in his recent newsletter, We overprinted the TREES collection (issues 1-8) significantly – something like 300% of initial orders – and apparently[...]

The end of Trees Vol 1 And he doesn't mess about, Whatever words could they be? Bitchumin, slagheap and constantly-annoying? A punch is too good for him, in today's Earth 2. Grimm Fairy Tales is less circumspect… and a little more forthright. New 52: Future's End has a rather loose lipped John Constantine, but they do all seem to be[...]

Trees from Image Comics, written by Warren Ellis, with art by Jason Howard So many titles to choose from, but this one sung to me, steeped as it was in John Wyndham, Edge of Darkness and perfectly timed for modern day concerns of individuals finding a place to be, all at a time when the world[...]

Also, check for the Secret Wars references here… Trees #7 Called it. Sometimes comics like Infinity Man And The Forever People get so meta I just don't know where to look. Reading books like Arkham Manor, which take place before Batman #36, after Batman #36, just makes things all a bit weirder. Gotham By Midnight #1 launches and,[...]

Warren Ellis seems concerned about the sales of his new comic book for Image, Trees. We ran a piece. Though, concerning print runs, it as been pointed out to me that Trees is beating Transmetropolitan in sales significantly For example, randomly, Transmetropolitan #18, is estimated to have sold 16,445 Whereas Trees #3, say, sold 23,000, half way between Planetary's[...]

Warren Ellis writes in his newsletter, TREES issue 8 is finally complete As soon as I've gotten PROJECT STEPNEY out of the way (and I'm fifteen pages off the end of the first draft), I am commencing the second run of TREES, issues 9-13 approx, which I'm referring to as TREES: TWO FORESTS This will have[...]

Also, Dr Fate may have something to say about this. Dr Fate criticises Multiversity's decision to use the same plot as The Avengers right now. Why do I guess that this is the comic that will have been really underordered this week? Gwen Stacy as a Spider-Man in Edge Of Spider-Verse, and also having to deal with those really nice,[...]

In his newsletter, Warren Ellis lets us know, Making notes on what I'm calling TREES: TWO FORESTS because Jason has apparently decided that I have to write it until I die.

One day, so will I. I told you those black poppies in Trees #2 were important Per Edge Of Darkness, they would lead to the wiping out of humanity What will happen this time?   And that's what happens when an important seal is killed in Chew Not an Army Seal Just a seal PETE should totally get[...]

And I fully intended to review Warren Ellis' Trees #2, but my distributor shorted all my copies I image it was genius, and will burn through it when my replacement copies come tomorrow. Over at DC John's and JRJR's Superman is finally here! Saying it's better than what's come before for Supes' New 52 title is[...]

I really liked the new Warren Ellis/Jason Howard comic book Trees I'm sure I mentioned that a few times In his Orbital Operations newsletter, Warren Ellis writes, Oh, the continuing stoooory of the TREES #1 overprint: according to Image, we have under 6000 copies of the overprint left That means we sold around 44,000 copies of[...]

By Dylan Gonzalez There are some weeks when I am reading comics and the work is so good, I think to myself, this would make a great movie.  Then I stop and realize I love that this is a comic and exists solely as a comic.  I kept thinking that on the day when I was[...]

I really liked Trees Here's just one of the reason Spoilers on. Warren Ellis on the BBC's Edge Of Darkness. On the writer. Totally missed this: the writer Troy Kennedy Martin died yesterday Today, he's probably best remembered by most as writer of THE ITALIAN JOB and KELLY'S HEROES To me, he'll always be the man who wrote[...]

Interesting Drug has come to the right place if they're looking for weird people… welcome to a few thoughts about a few of today's comics. Jim Gordon there, world class diver, fully clothed, feet down, from the top of a Gotham skyscraper, in today's Batman #31. Nightwing has a fashion dilemma in Nightwing #30. Amanda Waller meets a[...]

Aaron Haaland of A Comic Shop in Orlando, Florida, writes: Hey Fandom! This week Image gave us some new hotness, DC had lots of Bat books, and Marvel Original Sins tie in. Warren Ellis' Trees #1 is a speculative fiction post apocalyptic story set ten years from now after we were invaded by tree-like structures that don't[...]
